Vienna is made out of history, which made it a true art piece in modern times. Its museums are a real opportunity for you to encounter the Vienna of the past, as well as of the present. Many compelling collections and exhibits are displayed at the city’s museums, which we highly recommend if you find yourself visiting the city.
All classical music lovers will enjoy the museum which is dedicated to the musical giant Beethoven. The first association of Vienna is Beethoven, when he came in 1787 in this Austrian capital to study at Mozart’s. In 1792, Vienna became his home. Although three flats in Vienna were related to him, a museum dedicated solely to him didn’t exist. However, a flat in Heiligenstadt was expanded and converted into a museum in Beethoven’s honour and the honour of his works that he created in his life.In 1802, Beethoven wrote a letter “The Heiligenstadt Testament” to his brother in this flat where he said that he was sad and desperate for having lost his hearing.
The Madame Tussauds museums are famous museums with wax figures all around the world and there are 14 of them in total. The first one was established in London in 1835, whereas the Madame Tussauds museum was established in Vienna in 2011. A wax figure museum is a real place for anyone who wants to see what famous people looked or look like, many of which are singers, actors, great historical figures, presidents, kings and queens, almost the same as the real people, without a difference.
